Ratcliffe Aims for Manchester United to Win Premier League by 2028
Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe remains steadfast in his ambition for the club to secure a Premier League title by 2028, aligning with the club’s 150th anniversary.
Despite challenges such as financial constraints and on-field struggles, Ratcliffe believes this goal is attainable. He remarked, “I don’t think it’s mission impossible. I think it’s good to have goals and objectives.”
Ratcliffe acknowledges that the path to success requires time and strategic planning, drawing parallels to clubs like Arsenal and Liverpool, which underwent periods of restructuring before returning to winning ways.
He stated, “If you look at Arsenal, if you look at Liverpool, if you look at the period of time it took them to get the house in order and get back to winning ways, that’s probably slightly on the short end of the spectrum. But it’s not impossible.”
The club has launched “Project 150,” an initiative aimed at revitalizing Manchester United’s competitive edge by the 2028 milestone.
Chief Executive Omar Berrada emphasized the importance of setting clear objectives, saying, “You have to set an objective right? So you focus everybody’s minds on where you’re trying to get to and it can’t just be open-ended.”
While the journey ahead is challenging, Ratcliffe remains optimistic about Manchester United’s future.
Former footballer Thierry Henry has shared his thoughts on Arsenal’s match following their loss to Atlético Madrid on October 13.
Speaking during a brief interview on CBS Sports, Henry criticised the practice of players or coaches expressing certain opinions through the media instead of addressing issues directly within the dressing room.
“I’m not a coach anymore, but I always say, whoever speaks like that, out. Keep that in the dressing room, it’s as simple as that,” Henry said on CBS Sports.
“That is the only way it can work. You have to say those things to a person’s face… going through the press, I am not really a fan of that.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on the 2026 Ballon d’Or award, revealing that he hopes the winner will come from his team.
The manager spoke about how hard his players have worked and expressed his belief that they deserve the recognition.
“What I hope is that we win this trophy. We have players who deserve it.”
“Last year, we were the best team. We showed that it wasn’t just Ousmane Dembélé who deserved it.”
French football pundit Walid Acherchour has named Lamine Yamal as his pick to win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, sparking reactions among football fans.
Acherchour’s choice came as a surprise to some fans, who expected him to support fellow Frenchman Kylian Mbappé instead.
Speaking about his prediction, Acherchour expressed confidence in Yamal’s chances of winning the prestigious individual award.
“For me, Lamine Yamal, he is going to get it [2026 Ballon d’Or]. For me, there’s no doubt anymore,” Acherchour said, as quoted by Actu Foot. That start to the season shows that in fact, he was injured during the World Cup. He was the best player in La Liga, and he won the World Cup.
“Even if, for me, in fact, he doesn’t have the Ballon d’Or unanimously because his World Cup was average, even being average, he won it with Spain. He won La Liga with Barça.”
